Punta Cana Weather

Sandy white beaches, turquoise waters and an abundance of sunshine draw tourists to Punta Cana year-round. Although the area receives temperate weather throughout the year, the best time to visit is generally during the dry season lasting from November through April. During these months the weather is pleasantly warm with cool nights and limited rainfall and humidity. Temperatures rise slightly from May through October with the increased humidity making it seem hotter. The Caribbean's hurricane season lasts from June 1 through November 30, but Punta Cana's peak months are August and September. Luckily, Punta Cana is positioned in a well-protected area that usually receives only minor damages.
